Jazz Jackrabbit 2 on Raspberry Pi
 
So, I got JJ2 working n a Raspberry Pi 2 with Eltech's ExaGear Desktop (a runtime x86 emulator of some kind) for RPi 2 (ARMv7) and Wine running inside it. ExoGear costs $25 but for me that's no big deal :)

Here is JJ2 TSF with the latest JJ2+ running the default single player episode.

Online games also work.
It is mostly playable on lower/lowest resolutions, although sometimes the lower resolution yields lower FPSs than the resolution you see in the screenshot. I have not tried running it "headless", or with overclocking yet.
Running a JJ2 server on a Raspberry Pi is a possible use :D
JCS does not run with ExaGear seem to handle 8-bit only (JCS requires 32-bit graphics).

Running x86 Linux applications should work better than running wine applications (like linux version of Skype, that's only for x86).

Will try this more later on, maybe make a video to show how well it runs :)

For playing the game this does seem more like a (cool) proof-of-concept.

But I definitely see this as a cheap and feasible way to run a JJ2 server. So I like to see where this goes, great job indeed! ;)
